Your life is a Sacred Journey –
and it is about change,
growth, discovery,
movement, transformation,
continuously expanding your vision
of what is possible,
stretching your soul,
learning to see clearly & deeply,
listening to your intuition,
taking courageous risks, embracing
challenges
at every step along the way.
You are on the path –
exactly where
you’re meant to be right now...
and from here,
you can only go forward,
shaping your life story
into a magnificent tale of triumph,
of healing, of courage,
beauty, wisdom, power,
dignity & love.
